Audix OM3

I've been using it for rehearsals and live performances.

Pros:
Rugged. I've been carrying it in my gig bag for some time now and have had no issues.
Great sound quality, I really like how my voice sounds through this mic.

Cons
This is a minor concern, but with some XLR connectors the fit is really tight. As in you need to apply quite a bit of force to push the connector all the way in.

I've always tried to look outside the box (SM58). This performs very well compared to any mic at its price range (of which I have tried many). The sound itself is great. There's no on/off switch, that's a small handicap. And it's not a miracle maker, if you aim it in less than optimum angle considering sound sources, it will feedback, like most microphones. Even while feedback eliminated by a touch of EQ, this mic produces a pleasant sound, at least on male voice. Does not suit female voice very well.

I've used SM58s for years and still swear by them for most vocal applications - however, when a step up is required I LOVE the OM3. Great quality, fantastic sound and offers a higher feedback threshold than my trusty 58s. Haven't used the OM3 for long but so far very impressed.

Great build, feedback is a thing of the past, they feel robust, and if this OM3 was good enough for Bruce Springsteen, then it's good enough for me.

Hey my favorite mic of all time !!!!!!

Better than more expensive microphones!

Took a chance with Audix few years ago and never looked back, they are a great mic, lovely frequency for vocals, I def prefer it to my sm58 which I retired since

bought this mike as a spare but quality is so good i now use this as a main mike.
